- Write an equation for the function graphed above G(x)=arrow_forwardThe graph in the figure below shows the mean flow F for the Arkansas River, in cubic feet of water per second, as a function of the time t, in months, since the start of the year. The flow is measured near the river's headwaters in the Rocky Mountains. (a) Use functional notation to express the flow at the end of August. F() Estimate the value of the above term. ft3 sec (b) When is the flow at its greatest? April,May, June, July, August, or October (c) At what time is the flow increasing fastest? April,May, June, July, August, or October (d) Estimate the average rate of change per month in the flow during the first 2 months of the year. ft3/sec per month(e) In light of the source of the Arkansas River, interpret your answers to parts (b), (c), and (d). Because the flow is measured near the river's headwaters in the Rocky Mountains, we expect any change in flow to come from melting snow primarily. This is consistent with the change in flow during the first two…arrow_forwardSketch the graph of the function. y = csc x/2arrow_forward

Which function has the largest value for b? ? B A D C (Click on graph to enlarge)arrow_forwardSketch a rough graph of the function without using acalculator. y= -e-xarrow_forward
- The resale value V, in thousands of dollars, of a boat is a function of the number of years t since the start of 2011, and the formula is V= 14.5 - 1.it. (a) Calculate V3). 11.2 thousand dollars Explain in practical terms what your answer means. This means that the resale value of the boat will be 11.2 thousand dollars at the start of the year 2014 (b) In what year will the resale value be 10.1 thousand dollars? 2015 (c) Solve for t in the formula above to obtain a formula expressingt as a function of V. 14.5 1.1 1.1 (d) In what year will the resale value be 7.9 thousand dollars? 2017arrow_forwardA utility company charges a base rate of 10 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh) for the first 350 kWh and 15 cents per kilowatt hour for all additional electricity usage. The amount E (in dollars) that the utility company charges is a function of the number x of kilowatt hours used.arrow_forwardThe resale value V, in thousands of dollars, of a boat is a function of the number of yearst since the start of 2011, and the formula is V = 10.5 – 1.3t. (a) Calculate V(4). thousand dollars Explain in practical terms what your answer means, This means that the resale value of the boat will be thousand dollars at the start of the year (b) In what year will the resale value be 2.7 thousand dollars? (c) Solve for t in the formula above to obtain a formula expressing t as a function of V. t = (d) In what year will the resale value be 1.4 thousand dollars?arrow_forward
